Chapter 226
Following the weak induction of the Pure World Pearl, they came to a deep valley. The valley was filled with a thick dark atmosphere and waves of eerie laughter echoed.
Suddenly, a huge dark python jumped out of the darkness, opened its bloody mouth and pounced on them. Everyone joined forces to resist, but the python's thick skin was hard to hurt.
At this time, Gu Shihan thought that he could use the power of the guardian ring to amplify the holy light of Yu Ruyi and form a sharp light blade.
Mo Yu attracted the python's attention, and Gu Shihan found the right moment to use his special move, cutting the python with the light blade.
After the python died, the dark aura decreased significantly. Just as everyone was celebrating, a black hole appeared at the bottom of the valley, which seemed to lead to an endless dark abyss. Gu Shihan made up his mind and led everyone to jump into the black hole to completely eliminate the source of darkness.
After entering the black hole, everyone found that it was like another world, with distorted space and strange dark creatures everywhere. Gu Shihan held the Purifying Pearl tightly, and the light of the Purifying Pearl barely illuminated a small area around it.
They moved forward cautiously, and suddenly, black rays of light shot out from the darkness and everyone hurriedly dodged.
Situ Tinglang was accidentally hit and instantly felt a dark force invading his body. Gu Shihan quickly used the power of the guardian ring to drive away the darkness for him.
Going deeper, they saw a huge dark core surrounded by countless dark whirlpools. Gu Shihan realized that this was the source of the dark power.
Everyone transferred their power to Gu Shihan without hesitation. She combined the Purifying Pearl, Jade Ruyi and all the power and attacked the core of darkness.
A dazzling light flashed, accompanied by a huge roar. The dark core began to collapse and disintegrate, and the dark creatures also turned to ashes. When the light dissipated, everyone found themselves back in the town.
Time passes quietly, like the sand in an hourglass, slipping through your fingers without you noticing.
At this moment, Gu Shihan and the other nine people were facing a severe situation and had to adopt a strategy of acting separately.
This was because the First Heaven had fallen into extreme chaos, the degree of which was beyond imagination. Even the passage leading to the Second Heaven was destroyed in this catastrophe, and it was completely cut off from the upper realm.
After careful consideration and discussion, Gu Shihan and others finally divided the team into three groups.
Among them, Shi Qinghan, Mo Yu and Situ Tinglang formed the first group; Duan Siqi, Mo Jian and Nangong Yi formed the second group; as for the third group, it was composed of Gu Shihan himself, Wen Xin and Gu Jiahui.
This grouping is the result of careful planning by everyone, aiming to give full play to the expertise and advantages of each member to deal with various crises that may be encountered.
Fortunately, each group of people has holy spring water and a powerful guardian ring to protect them. With the blessing of these treasures, their safety can at least be guaranteed to a certain extent.
Despite having such powerful protective measures, facing the horrifying chaos in the current first heaven, everyone's hearts are still filled with anxiety and uneasiness.
The current First Heaven is in a state of chaos. According to incomplete statistics, as many as one-fifth of the immortals have been eroded by the power of darkness.
These people controlled by the power of darkness become extremely cruel and bloodthirsty, and their hearts are filled with endless cruelty and viciousness.
They acted without any bottom line and completely lost the brilliance of humanity. For a moment, the entire First Heaven seemed to have become a terrifying hell on earth, and every immortal living there was trembling with fear like a frightened bird.
Those who originally dared to enter and leave their homes freely now chose to close their doors tightly and dared not easily step out of their homes, for fear that they would accidentally become the target of attack by those crazy people.
After Gu Shihan, Wen Xin and Gu Jiahui parted ways with the others, they headed straight to the north, which was now the most chaotic place.
Battles between humans, demons, and monsters and those who have been transformed by evil often occur. Of course, they are not just aimed at those who have been transformed by evil. Even if they are normal humans, demons, and monsters, when they gather together, they are the source of chaos.
"Shi Han, there are only three of us, and with the contracted beasts, there are less than ten of us. We are too alone and weak. If possible, can we recruit some cultivators with good character to join us?!" Gu Jiahui said thoughtfully.
Before Gu Shihan could speak, Wen Xin interrupted and said, "Brother Gu is right. Along the way, we have met some people with good cultivation and good character. They can spontaneously fight against the dark forces. It shouldn't be a problem for us to team up with them. There is strength in numbers!"
Gu Shihan accepted their suggestions. In the past six months, their team now has thirty people, half of whom are Mahayana cultivators, and they are only one step away from becoming human immortals.
On this day, everyone dealt with dozens of blackened fairy beasts and returned to the town to relax and rest.
The sky above the town was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and a dark crack opened again. A group of dark creatures resembling bats emerged from it, screaming and rushing towards the crowd.
Everyone was shocked, "What the hell is this?"
Gu Shihan was also frightened, and immediately calmed down and said, "Everyone should organize the people in the town to kill the black bats. I didn't expect the dark forces to make a comeback."
"Okay!" Everyone calmed down from the initial shock, and took out their weapons to start killing the black bats.
Gu Shihan raised the Purifying Pearl. Yutong had woken up from her deep sleep a few days ago. She stayed by Gu Shihan's side to protect him.
Everyone quickly found a good position, but these bats were extremely agile, and the light of the Purifying Pearl could only drive away some of them.
Gu Jiahui was very careful. He discovered that these black bats were not indestructible. They also had a weakness, which was fear of fire.
Gu Jiahui said loudly: "Black bats are afraid of fire. In order to save spiritual energy, you can use fire to deal with them. Don't get hurt by black bats, the consequences will be serious!"
Everyone seized the opportunity and worked together to cast spells. Those who had fire spiritual roots used their own elixir fire, and those who did not use fire spiritual roots used fire talismans.
Everyone cooperated well, and the black bats fluttered in the fire and finally died, but bats still continued to fly out of the dark cracks.
Just when everyone was feeling a little desperate, Gu Shihan activated the guardian ring on his hand, and the guardian ring suddenly shone brightly, causing Gu Jiahui and Wen Xin's guardian ring to shine as well.
"Great, this thing is so magical, we are saved!" Someone shouted.
Gu Shihan and the other two only felt that the protective ring quickly fell off from their fingers, flew up automatically, and flew towards the dark crack.
The guardian ring stayed above the crack, and rays of light accompanied by powerful force slowly repaired the dark crack.
As the crack closed, the last bat was also destroyed. Everyone collapsed on the ground, exhausted but glad that they had finally defeated the black bat.
